What Did Amari Cooper Say About Bills' Availability?

The Kansas City Chiefs may not be seen as a top offense in the NFL right now, but they have one of the best defenses in the league - especially over the last few years.

It's why the Buffalo Bills will need all of their offensive weapons showing up in droves for Sunday's contest between the two contending teams in the AFC.

While Buffalo won't have rookie receiver Keon Coleman or tight end Dalton Kincaid, they could get a boost with Pro Bowl wide receiver Amari Cooper returning from a wrist injury. At least, that's what Cooper hopes right now.

“Definitely feeling better, definitely more comfortable,” Cooper said. “Just ready to play football again.”

Cooper is a seven-time 1,000-yard receiver who was traded to the Bills from the Cleveland Browns this season and has appeared in only two games since being acquired by his new club. He has caught five passes for 69 yards and one score while playing on a reduced snap count.

“Just continuing to practice, you know what I’m saying?” Cooper said. “Go about the day, see how it feels, and then we’ll be good to go.”

Over his first couple of games, it has been a struggle for the former Cowboy and Raider to find a role in the offense with Josh Allen at quarterback. If he can play on Sunday, he could tilt the tide in a key conference showdown.
